Chapter 111 Stifling
Chen Ku, wearing bright red boots, walked from the entrance of Liangjiang Guild Hall to Qu Feng and Zhao Chuanzu.

this moment.

At the gate of Liangjiang Guild Hall, with its back to the Longjiang River, all the onlookers felt as if their breathing had stopped.

Everyone looked at the pair of iron-like boots on Chen Ku's feet in disbelief.

"Did you really get through it and walk this far?"

"Back then, the barber of the Yulong Society only walked five steps in his red-hot iron boots, but he laid the foundation for the Yulong Society to last for a hundred years."

"Young Master Chen walked over from the door. How many steps did he take?"

"I counted! Thirty-six steps!"

At this moment, feeling the horrible red heat coming from Chen Ku's feet in front of him, it was enough to dry up all the flesh and blood and burn everything.

Not to mention Qu Feng and Zhao Chuanzu were dumbfounded at this time.

Even Huang Muxia felt a surge of unbelievable emotions in his heart:
"impossible!!"

At that time, barbers could only walk five steps in fire boots, which was basically the limit. Although they didn't make a sound during the process, they would be directly killed by the pain after five steps.

Chen Ku...

This young man, isn't he a human being?
"Chen Kuta?" Sui Qingfang covered her mouth in shock: "How is this possible?"

Even the arrogant Lin Xinglong had an expression of disbelief on his face: "This... are those fire boots really burned red?"

“It’s definitely red hot!”

Huang Muxia heard these harsh words and subconsciously said in a trembling voice:
"Even if we at Liangjiang Guild Hall have the guts to do this, we will not deceive the world in public."

Most people believed it. After all, the Liangjiang Guild would not dare to do such a thing unless they had lost face and did not want to stay in Baojiao County anymore.

Not to mention……

It was helping Chen Ku to cheat.

At this time, a voice was heard.

It was Xie Qingfeng, the thirteenth young master of the Xie family. He frowned slightly and said, "The fire boots are definitely real. Even I can smell the smell on them, but, there is no burnt smell?"

Everyone realized it later.

The main reason is that the scene of wearing red-hot iron boots barefoot is so visually impactful that people subconsciously ignore that under normal circumstances, the flesh and blood will be burnt.

Back then, a barber would only take five steps and the whole street would be filled with a burnt smell.

"Chen Ku, you..." Zhao Chuanzu looked at the young man in front of him in shock, then lowered his head to feel the temperature of the fire boots. They were definitely burning red. He could feel the heat even from such a close distance, so he said with a pale face: "What method did you use?"

Chen Ku's expression remained unchanged: "How can I tell you this? Can you pass on your Nine Dragons and the Qi-boosting Iron Shirt from the Iron Shop to others at will?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was even more shocked.

This,
Could it be that Chen Ku has mastered some magical martial arts?

"Cousin, is there really such a martial art in the world? One that can make people immune to water and fire?" Sui Qingfang couldn't help but blurt out.

"Of course there is." After Lin Xinglong pondered for a moment, he slowly said, "In the Hanging Temple in Youzhou, there is a martial art called 'Indestructible Golden Body'. After mastering it, not only will you be [indestructible], but you will also be [not afraid of water, fire, poison, etc.], and you will be [able to work without sleep], and your power will be [inexhaustible]. It is extremely magical. Even if you haven't reached the state of perfection, you can still counterattack the enemy's attack... But, this magical skill is a 'world-class' martial art, how could it be learned by a peasant in a county town..."

"What about Chen Ku?" Sui Qingfang was incredulous.

After pondering for a while, Lin Xinglong guessed, "Unless, he has special blood? He has some special blood that makes him not afraid of fire. This kind of thing is rare in the martial arts world, but it does exist. For example, in Youzhou's 'Murong family', everyone in their family is born with a kind of 'cold poison'. This kind of physique certainly makes their clansmen suffer, but at the same time, it allows them to practice martial arts ten times better than others at midnight on a full moon night. It is said that the Murong family has the blood of the ancient 'Taiyin Cold Cicada' flowing in their bodies, so they have this extraordinary gift."

"Bloodline?"

After hearing this, Huang Muxia and Xie Qingfeng also seemed to be thinking about it.

Just when everyone was speculating.

In front of Zhao Chuanzu and Qu Feng, Chen Ku took off the pair of red-hot iron boots, only to find that his feet were completely intact...

This made Lin Xinglong even more certain that Chen Ku might have some special bloodline.

"Bloodline is often a type of bone structure." Lin Xinglong said solemnly: "No wonder he has the power of the Four Symbols. I just don't know what kind of bloodline this is."

Just when Lin Xinglong was guessing.

Chen Ku calmly said in front of Zhao Chuanzu, "Now, I have won two items. If any of you two can do one more item, I will go to climb the knife mountain. So... Brother Qu wants to taste the poison? Or Brother Zhao wants to climb the knife mountain? Or... you also want to wear these shoes like me?"

He kicked the two pairs of red-hot shoes at Zhao Chuanzu and Qu Feng with his bare feet.

Qu Feng was shocked and dodged subconsciously. What was the difference between this and throwing a red-hot iron at him? His iron shirt could withstand the sharp edge, but it didn't mean it could withstand the fire, otherwise he would have put it on long ago.

Zhao Chuanzu was also shocked and quickly turned sideways, watching the fire boots rolling on the ground and emitting a lot of flames.

Look back again.

He looked at Chen Ku as if he were a monster.

He now had only one thought in his mind.

"Why hasn't the poison of his heartbreak grass taken effect yet?"

Because he could already feel the heartbreak grass he had eaten reacting in his stomach. If he hadn't pressed acupoints and held his breath, the poison would have taken effect by now.

Just at this time.

Qu Feng had already cupped his hands, and bowed to Chen Ku, saying in a hoarse voice: "No need, Brother Chen's methods are amazing, and Qu is convinced."

After saying that, he turned to Xie Qingfeng and said with deep resentment: "My disciple is incompetent and caused the firewood and iron shop to suffer losses."

He did not forget what the Thirteenth Young Master had just agreed to lose to Chen Ku.

Xie Qingfeng didn't say anything, but waved his hand and said, "I am not as skilled as you, so I have to admit defeat. Brother Chen's method of avoiding fire is so good that even I, let alone you, can't come. It's not shameful to lose."

Say it.

Said to Chen Ku:

"What you just promised was 20,000 jin of iron mother and 80,000 taels of silver, right? The silver note can be delivered today. As for the iron mother... I'll write a note to Brother Chen here."

As he said that, he asked Huang Muxia to bring paper and pen.

Seeing how Shisanshao Xie accepted defeat so decisively, everyone couldn't help but express their sincere admiration for the future manager of the firewood and iron shop.

"This amount of money is not much to begin with. Young Master Xie won't lose his composure for such a small amount of money." Sui Qingfang said.

And just when Xie Qingfeng was writing the note.

Chen Ku was still waiting for Zhao Chuanzu's words, and chuckled, "Why, Brother Zhao, do you still want to compete?"

He can continue climbing the mountain of knives. Don't forget that he still has a "blood knife arm" made of indestructible steel. All he has to do is a few backflips after he gets up there.

Zhao Chuanzu was forced to the edge of a cliff. He only had two choices left. One was to grit his teeth and choose to climb a mountain of knives or descend into a sea of ​​fire. The other was...

"You win."

Zhao Chuanzu took a deep breath and bowed to Chen Ku:

"Zhao is sincerely convinced, there is no need to compete anymore."

After saying this, he raised his head and looked at Chen Ku, his face full of conviction, and even a hint of admiration and worship in his eyes.

【There is Zhao Chuanzu...】

Chen Ku lowered his eyelids slightly, let out a laugh, and said, "Well, since Brother Zhao is willing to accept defeat, then... I don't need to say more."

Zhao Chuanzu looked respectful and said seriously, "Of course, Uncle Liang, take out my private seal. There are so many people here now. Let's write the document, sign it, and stamp it. From today on, our family's 'Sifang Iron Shop' at No. 18 Guangyun Street, Qiulongfu, will be owned by Brother Chen."

【There is Zhao Chuanzu...】

Chen Ku watched as Zhao Chuanzu called an old man to his side, took out pen and ink, and began to write the document for the transfer of property.

Everyone was watching today's competition, which ended with such a legendary story.

"Today was worth it!"

"Climbing a mountain of swords, walking through a sea of ​​fire, and taking poison to survive! If you tell anyone about this... it's just like the great master in the opera."

Somewhere on the second floor.

Mingshengnan took in everything that happened today and said to an elder beside him, "Auntie Lan, what do you think... this Chen Ku's bloodline is?"

"The Four Symbols are just the power of the beast, and they are not afraid of fire... In addition, they took the Heartbreak Grass before, and they don't have the means to press acupoints and seal the meridians, so the poison has not taken effect..."

The woman called Auntie Lan is wearing a black veil, and her temperament is as ethereal as smoke. She is Mingshengnan's protector.

Famous writers have offended many people when they wrote books and plaques, so how can they travel without someone to protect them?

Ming Shengnan was able to come to Baojiao County as a girl just because she had Aunt Lan by her side. It was very simple. Aunt Lan had the fifth realm of cultivation. Aunt Lan summarized the means that Chen Ku had shown, and after a moment's hesitation, she said, "It's not easy to judge. The bloodline is not common in Qiulong Mansion. Looking at the world, there are actually many special bloodlines, which may be related to some powerful human beings, or to the invincible demons, or it may be a natural bone structure."

"I didn't expect that I was wrong. He was only ranked ninth..." Mingshengnan muttered to himself, tapping his palm with a paper fan. "Baojiao County has such a person. When Dugu Wuer and his people come, things will be interesting."

main entrance.

Chen Ku watched Zhao Chuanzu stamp the transfer document seriously, then handed it to him with both hands solemnly.

"Brother Chen, I have to say that today Zhao has really broadened his horizons. I didn't expect that a county like Baojiao could have someone as special as Brother Chen. This is really a disgrace to oneself."

Zhao Chuanzu shook his head, with obvious regret on his face:

"I asked for it today, Brother Chen, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I hope you won't blame me. In the future...if you are lucky enough to do me a favor, I will apologize to you."

[There is Zhao Chuanzu, who has bad intentions towards the master...]

Chen Ku looked at the man in front of him who was apologizing and repenting seriously, and smiled and said:
"Brother Zhao, what you said is true. Well, since you said that, we must drink a lot in the future."

Everyone saw that the two people who had been at loggerheads before were now happily shaking hands and making peace.

I have to admire Chen Ku's broad mind.

There is also Zhao Chuanzu's flexible and submissive character.

otherwise.

No matter which of the two people is more stubborn, today's fight will be out of control.

Soon.

Xie Qingfeng's note has also been written.

Chen Ku accepted the two notes, bowed to Zhao Chuanzu, and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhao, Brother Qu. If you have the chance in the future, you can come to Yaowang Hall and sit for a while."

"Okay." Qu Feng responded with a wry smile.

"Sure!" Zhao Chuanzu said sincerely.

【There is Zhao Chuanzu...】

Huang Muxia finally came out and said, "Today, we have witnessed a good story about nephew Chen. He is ranked ninth on the list, and there is really no problem with that..."

Just saying.

"The surname Huang..."

A thunderous roar came from not far away.

Huang Muxia's face changed when he heard this, and he quickly looked at Xie Qingfeng and said, "Thirteenth Young Master."

"Ah."

Xie Qingfeng nodded.

Huang Muxia and Xie Qingfeng simultaneously moved away from their original positions and appeared in front of Yang Luchan who was striding towards them from a distance. Before Yang Luchan could speak, they quickly explained:
"Master Yang, calm down! Your disciple is safe and sound!"

"Chen Ku is fine, not only that, he won!"

Yang Luchan was originally informed by Jiang Shaoyou that the Liangjiang Guild Hall dared to collude with the Chai Tiepu and the Guxiangmen to plot against his own apprentice by using methods such as taking poison, walking on fire, and stepping on knives to compete.

It was not until he was a hundred years old that he finally met such a talented disciple.

My brain is about to explode.

He came with a stick.

But I didn't expect that before I could get mad, I heard that not only was my disciple fine, but he also won...

"Master, I'm fine." Chen Ku waved the two notes in his hand from a distance and said with a smile, "I made two hundred thousand."

Yang Luchan was stunned.

The subconscious is incredible.

How did our disciples win?

At this time, Huang Muxia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master Yang, look, nephew Chen is fine, you should put down the stick first..."

"Let go? Let go of your mother's fart!"

Yang Luchan roared:
"My disciple is fine. It's because he is very capable and blessed. You little bastard Huang, and you Xie Qingfeng, you two thought I was dead... How dare you do this? Don't say anything. Take a beating from me, and then I'll write it off!"

Without hesitation.

The twelve thousand jin water and fire dragon head stick swept across, without any smoke or fire, towards the two of them at the same time.

The two men's faces changed drastically. Although they did not feel any airflow from the stick, their scalps were numb. Without any reaction, they faced it with all their might.

At the same time, they stepped on the ground and a huge rock flew up. The two of them used it as a shield, infused it with strength, and blocked it in front of them.

boom!
It was not until the stick landed in front of the two men that there was a loud bang, and a huge force like a tidal wave fell in front of them.

Boom! !

It was like splitting mountains and cracking rocks, and the huge rocks in front of the two men were shattered into powder, and the two men flew backwards like cannonballs.

Under the feet of the two men, a chasm more than ten meters long appeared in the ground.

Huang Muxia was hit by a stick and fell to the ground fifty meters away, vomiting blood.

Although Xie Qingfeng felt better and had stabilized his body, he still couldn't stop coughing.

The onlookers were stunned by this scene.

After watching the two people being hit by his full-strength stick, Yang Luchan breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Chen Ku, stepped forward, and said without hesitation:

"Back."

Everyone watched as the tall old man took Chen Ku back home, just like a parent taking a child who had been bullied outside back home.

Many people's mouth corners twitched.

When I think about it, something is wrong.

It seems that your disciple did not suffer any loss, and even made the other two families give up assets worth 200,000 taels.

After Chen Ku returned to Yaowang Hall.

Shang Yunfang and Chai Bao came over.

"How is it? I heard that you took the herb Gelsemium elegans. Come, here's the antidote." Shang Yunfang immediately brought over a bowl of medicine.

Chen Ku didn't say much and drank the medicine. There was no need to explain anything at this time. Since Lin Xinglong said that he had some bloodline, let others guess.

"You are too reckless. You just follow the tricks set by others?" Yang Luchan was so angry that he pulled his beard.

While Shang Yunfang felt Chen Ku's pulse, he said, "I have never told you two masters about my talent. Please forgive me."

Yang Luchan was silent, and said: "You do have a lot of surprises, but it is understandable that you did not get these things from Yaowang Hall, but grew them naturally. It is normal to keep some secrets to yourself."

"Really not poisoned?" After Shang Yunfang took his pulse, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't do things like this again in the future."

"Don't worry, Master."

Chen Ku nodded: "I will never expose myself to danger again."

"That's good."

Shang Yunfang said slowly:
"This matter is now over. Don't worry. If anything happens in the future, you still have two masters who can move out when needed."

A few more instructions.

"It's getting late today, go home and have a good rest."

Chen Ku responded.

After paying respects to the two masters, he left the Medicine King Hall.

Walk out of the hall.

First I went home, changed my clothes, took a shower, then opened the door and looked at the night outside.

"It's a dark and windy night."

Chen Ku muttered to himself, turned back into the house, took out the bow and stick, covered his face and put on a hat, smelled Zhao Chuanzu's scent, and sneaked over in the cover of night:
"I don't know how many thoughts he has about dealing with me, but I can't see it on his face. He is very cunning and can bend and stretch... If this boy is not eliminated, he will become a big trouble in the future. It is better to nip the threat in the bud as soon as possible."
